First Mod

My first mod is ordered for my SD. I ordered a sub box from supercrew sound. My truck came with a JL Audio 500 amp but no subs. I have 2 real good 8s I plan to put in it. I'm not into huge bass. I like sound quality. I had 2 -8s in my F150. I competed in SQ contest with my old truck. I won a few first & second place trophies as a amateur. I hit 129db with the 8s I had in the F150 playing the song Flashdance. It was what you had to play for SPL in sound quality back then. I have a set of MB Quart 3 way components for the front I plan to install soon. The truck has Poineer speakers in the doors now. They sound good but the Quarts sound much better.

I built the box for the single 8" Fosgate in my Ranger and upgraded the 4 stock speakers, put the amp under passenger seat. I am just interested in good sound in a small confined space ... don't care if those outside can't hear it.

Why would I lift a 4x2F250 bf250? Its tall enough now.The truck has a Panasonic HU. Its a good unit with Sat radio & Ipod hookup. I'm planning something like you have dono. I just want good sound. I don't care to be heard blocks away.
